    I know they're a US organization and all, and slashdot is obviously global, but really, are there THAT many people who don't know who/what the RIAA is?

      Slashdot isn't global. It's globally accessible, but it's a U.S. site.

  2. Declining Sales by RodRandom · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    Music sales are declining because there hasn't been anything new in popular music for 30 years, and very little that's any good.

    Our culture, like our politics and economy, is belated, bloodless, and exhausted. Everyone is tired of it.

    That's why most people are far more interested in music technology than they are in music.
